A Level: Databases Technologies (A7-R5, NIELIT / DOEACC)
Introduction
Application software requires data to be stored permanently. Databases provide the facility to store data permanently. Further, databases provide the functionality to maintain and retrieve data. Depending upon different types of data storage, retrieval, and processing, different types of databases are required. This module is designed with a view to equipping the learner with two types of databases, RDBMS and NoSQL databases.
Objective
The module is designed to equip a learner to acquire knowledge of the current trend and technologies of Databases. It provides a theoretical background as well as in-depth knowledge of Software/ packages. After completing the module, the incumbent will be able to:
- Understand Database design using Normalization and E-R modeling
- Use Standard Query Language and its various versions.
- Understand the importance of backup and recovery techniques.
- Develop Database System to handle real-world problems.
- Understand to use Maria DB
- Learn concept of JSON Object & NoSQL Database
Duration
120 Hours – (Theory: 48 hrs + Practical: 72 hrs)
